Food is not something anyone can do without nor is it, something we can overlook because food strengthens humans. And anything that has life.
My mom once told me that "the road to every man's heart is through his mouth" which means when we eat our hearts will be filled with joy, that doesn't apply to a man but every human because when you are hungry, there is nothing anyone can say or do that would enter into your ears because you need to refill your energy with food.
My comfort food is porridge, I don't know why I love porridge so much but all I know is that ever since I was little porridge has been my favorite food which gives me the vibes and energy that I need.
Let me quickly explain how to prepare the porridge before I continue how much I love the food.
Porridge can be cooked with, yam, plantain, potatoes, etc. but I prefer potato porridge because I love potatoes personally.
How to prepare it
Peel the potatoes, the quantity you want and then rinse it inside a clean bowl. After that pour the potatoes into a pot then put it on the burner to parboiled.
After some minutes, sieve the potato water away and then fry the stew. You can add anything you like inside the stew, for instance, fish, crayfish, cowskin, vegetables, onions, and meat. Etc. it depends on how much you are using to cook it.
After frying for some minutes add your seasoning then stir, add your parboiled potatoes into the sauce, and then stir it again, then cover it to get done on low heat.
Porridge is a very fast food to cook and it is a very healthy food as well, I cooked this particular one in the picture recently and you all need to taste how yummy it was.
Human without food is a dead end and that is why I learned how to cook delicious food, there are different ways you can cook porridge but I chose this method because it is very fast.
As much as the word is food to our souls, likewise, food is for our stomachs, I remember when I was still in the university, I always made sure I had my food with me because I don't joke with my stomach. But one day, there was no food at home and I hadn't collected my salary, my sister that I was living with was not around and I had to be in school for lectures.
All the money I had was my transportation fee to school and back home.
So I told myself that I could do without food for some hours, I got to class, and while the lecture was going on I couldn't concentrate again because I was so famished and I was having a serious headache because of the hunger.
I didn't have a choice but to go outside of the class to get something to eat from my transport fee back home. It was after I ate something and relaxed before I could get myself and hear what the lecturer was saying.
Later, one of my classmates helped me with the money I used to transport myself back home.
One thing about food is that you can never do without it except you are ready to die of hunger.
